Will this show the TOTAL number of rows overall or just the number of rows in the current page? i.e. if we are having total of 100 records showing up in pages of 10 records, will this variable show 100 or just 10? Also are you using a web service data source or a list as data source?

I have the same issue.
But the answer given here will just show the count of the rows currently displayed in the view.
Like if we have 10 rows displayed, than the count($Rows) only gives 10.
But I want to display like "1-10 Out of 100". How to get the total count ?
(I am using Sharepoint dataview webpart.)
